I will be (reluctantly) ponying up the $16 ...

It's a crucial game for the at-large resume for both teams.

Won't be easy. Massey's computer rates it as a near toss-up, very slight edge to Duke.

We need the team that showed up for Princeton and Penn to be on the field ...

I'll be at the game, so I don't have to worry about the broadcast. Looks like we're in for nice weather. I hope we bring our "A" game.

I don't think it's a make-or-break game for us. I hope we play well, develop more as a team, and win. But the main thing for me is no injuries.

Won't be able to follow live, but will probably pay for the replay broadcast if we win. Hope the production improved from last year (which was brutal). I know they did two prior games this year but haven't looked at FanLax to see what people thought of them.

I'm still bullish on this team as they continue to get healthier and more experienced. Absent an AQ, Duke is likely to be a direct competition for one of the final at-large spots, so I think this game looms large for our chances to make the tournament, especially if we were to lose additional Ivy games.

In theory there is no AQ in ACC, since it's only a 5 team league.  In fact, they commonly get 3 AQs. :-\

Loving Corrigan network's choice of hero images. Duke coach John Danowski with a nearly Albert Einstein shock of white hair vs. Willem Firth.

12 noon Corrigan Network match at Archbishop Spalding (Md HS): #4 North Carolina 17, #3 Harvard 7. Tar Heels were 23x27 on faceoffs, almost 2-1 on shots and SOGs. 10-3 at the half.

Read somewhere the webcast was to start at 1:30.  Now hoping it will at 2.

On now.  Corrigan brothers annoying as ever.

Stickwork looks great today

2-1 end of 1st Q.  Lots of possession. too few goals.

Difficult getting hands free.  Miss when we do.

Hopefully our ball movement has kept Duke running enough for them to be gassed later.

>>> Corrigan brothers annoying

This is like listening to the bad puns of a 1970s Triple-A radio broadcast, with 21st Century references. If this was student announcers, they might be called in to the dean's office for diversity training.

Cornell shots go off the post. "They've been hitten the pipe so often, you'd think they were in Washington, DC."

Cornell shot goes wide. "That shot went out so far left, it'll come back in bounds with a new pronoun."

Cornell gets 3 quick goes to start second half. "Momentum changes. ... Hide your wife."

[edit add] ... And more:

[paraphrasing] "Shot so far left ... Hunter Biden was on Jones Beach with a crack pipe."

"shot so far left ... Michael Moore is doing a documentary on it."

[And IIRC after goalie save] "Fat Jesus!" or "Phat"

just watching the boxscore
seems like Cornell picking up a lot of penalties

Big Red playing with a bit too much aggression, or the refs slanting things

CU77

The Red take it, 9-7. Tully is the hero once again.
